hi, i'm Heather Ellis!
A little about me — I’ve been married to my high school sweetheart for 25 wonderful years, and together we’ve built a beautiful family. We have one daughter in college, two amazing grown sons who’ve blessed us with the best daughters-in-law, and now the newest joy in our lives — our precious grandson. Being a Mimi and Papa has been the most rewarding role yet!
Holding Space for Your Postpartum Journey
I love being a doula; it is such a privilege to be invited into the sacred space of birth and the tender postpartum period. As both a birth and postpartum doula, I am dedicated to supporting families through the entire journey — from pregnancy to those first precious weeks or months with your baby.
Personalized Care
I believe birth and postpartum are deeply transformative experiences, each unique to the family. My role is to provide personalized, compassionate care that meets your specific needs and honors your journey. During pregnancy and birth, I offer guidance, emotional support, and practical tools to help you feel empowered and confident. Whether it's assistance with birth planning, comfort measures during labor, or advocating for your preferences, I am there every step of the way.
Once your baby arrives, I provide hands-on, nurturing support through the postpartum period. This includes guidance with newborn care, breastfeeding support, meal preparation, managing household tasks, and offering emotional reassurance. My approach is rooted in empathy, professionalism, and evidence-based practices, ensuring a calm and nurturing environment where you can recover, bond with your baby, and thrive.
If you’re curious about how personalized postpartum support can make a difference in your journey, I’d love to connect. Let’s sit down and chat about how I can support you and your family during this beautiful and transformative time.
